I passed all of my tests today and got my CDL!!! I'm in line at the DMV right now.
Orientation with C.R. England is tomorrow at 6am. I probably leave with my trainer on Friday.
I can't say enough about the trainers and training program at C.R. England in Fontana. They saw that I was working hard, but struggling with backing, and got me the help I needed.
I'm not sure when I'll have time to finish my diary, but I will finish it as soon as I can.
A huge thank you to Brett, Old School and everyone else here for your encouragement, advice and support. You are all a big part of why I was able to do this.
Best Regards, Colin K.
